For weakening and strengthening AC, must the correct AC always provide independent doubt/verification upon the likelihood that the conclusion holds?

I'm seeking someone who I can study with and also who I can maybe help on the LSAT. I've scored from 164-174 on practice tests and I might be able to help someone who doesn't have access to professional tutoring/LSAT classes. I learn by explaining, so I think this would be helpful for me and for the other person. I started at a 158 and I've learned a lot to help me raise my score, I'd love to help someone else raise their score too.

I'd prefer a female study buddy because I'm a girl, but this isn't 100% necessary. I have trouble focusing in groups, so we would study 1-on-1 at a local coffee shop or library or something.

Hi All, quick question about how schools receive scores. I took the June LSAT and am fairly confident I didn't get my goal score. I'm retaking in September. Am I correct that once I send schools my Sept. score, those schools will also see my June LSAT score? Thanks in advance.

I am sitting for the July LSAT, as most of know, we are allowed to see our score before deciding to cancel it. I was wondering what score would be a definite cancel? I have a LSAC weighted GPA of 3.75 and would really like to have ANY LSAT score on file (even if I plan on retaking in November) so I can send out some applications for ED. I do not mind going to a tier 4-5 law school if worst comes to worst, as my REAL need is scholarships. I am under a contractual obligation to take the July LSAT (free prep material from my undergraduate will have to be payed back if not taken by July) but I just graduated in December 2018 and barely got to LSAT studying in March. I am a non-tradition law school applicant, I graduated HS in 2003 and decided to go back to school 10 years later after being in the business world. I am a first generation college graduate and of course a first generation potential law school student and would appreciate any and all advice, as there are so many conflicting posts/threads online. My PTs ranged from 134 in March to 147 as of last week. Of course I will continue to use my Princeton Review prep materials until test day. I would like to know if I should cancel a score if I plan on retaking in November? Is it okay to have, say a 150 on file and retake it in November in hopes of getting a higher score?

Soft notes:

I have 10+ years of work experience (solid resume)

I have 2 LOR's (one from a professor, 1 from a business partner)

A great personal statement

I am currently scheduled to sit for the July 2019 test. Given the unique circumstance of being able to cancel score with a free retake I have planned to take it; although, I am not scoring where I would like. However, I am wondering if scoring low will be a confidence setback and if I should cancel and schedule for the September test. Conversely, should I continue with the plan of sitting for the July test, possibly get the digital format which would give me a practice run at digital format?

Currently, I am taking a summer class concurrently with LSAT studying and will start fall classes the end of August. I mention that because it would give me additional time where I am primarily able to focus on LSAT studying. I would appreciate any general advice. Additionally for those of you who sat for the test more than once, how did you maintain your confidence approaching your second take? Was it a matter of the increased understanding you gained in the time from the first to second test?

Adding to the stress is that LSAC has yet to approve my accommodations request; therefore, I have not done a 35 minute timed section or overall PT with the time constraints.

Hey guys, wanted to get your take on my situation. I am a Canadian student who graduated from the University of Toronto this year with an Honours BA. I finished with a UGPA of 3.54 and I am PT-ing in the 163-165 range right now. UCLA is my first choice for American schools and if I get in I will 100% accept the offer. I am wondering if it is worth it for me to apply early binding. I am not dead set on the US and will potentially go to U of T law if I am admitted but UCLA has always been a dream and I plan to practice in California. Would love to hear your thoughts!

What is the significance of a non-binding early decision that some schools offer? does that mean that if i am accepted early that i am not stuck going to that school? and if so does that mean i can apply to more than one non-binding early decision school?

Does the score come back on June 27? Also, will I get the score if I didnt do the writing sample yet?

Hey,

Just a quick question - from my understanding we cannot use the Beta tester program to do individual sections. How do students if they want to get the feel of individual sections online practice? Like I want to do RC online but do not want to do an entire test.

Any suggestions?

Is there somewhere on 7sage to purchase the logic games bundle to foolproof the games. I thought I had seen it somewhere but now I can't seem to find it.

I purchased the set of 10 official preptests that includes 56 and 57. I noticed that for each of those tests, the final game and questions were squeezed onto one page. Is this actually how the test was administered? Or was additional work space provided somewhere?

Hey guys, I'm looking for advice on the best way to move forward in my LSAT studies.

I took about a 3 week break due to lots of stuff going on at work and travel. Prior to my foolish hiatus, I was taking one or two timed sections a day, averaging -3/-4 on LR, -2 on LG, and -5/-6 on RC (so my scores have been hovering around the mid 160s). When I got back into studying last week, I started using the digital test taker and my scores have totally tanked. I'm talking -6/-7 on LR and even -9 on a single LR section yesterday, which is probably the worst score I've seen in over a year.

I guess I'm trying to isolate whether this massive score drop is due to the switch to digital or because of my extended break from studying... should I continue using the digital test taker and push through? Or should I temporarily return to paper testing to rebuild my skills and confidence?

My first LSAT score was a 161 in July 2018. I need at least a 165 by September 2019. This seemed so achievable a few weeks ago and with consistent scores, I was even hopeful that I could make the climb 170. But now I feel like I've taken ten steps back. What would ya'll recommend for me to get back on track?

Thanks for your tips!

So I noticed on LSAC website it says the LSAT is going full digital starting in September “in North America”. And I just called LSAC to ask if Asia LSAT’s are going to be digital in October and they just replied ‘cannot confirm at this point’. So I’m just really wondering if I should start getting familiar with digital format or just stick with paper format. I’m really hoping it goes digital in Asia too since being able to keep track of exactly how much time’s left has been really helpful when I tried out a few if the PT’s in digital format. Any ideas on whether or not Asia LSAT’s will be digital too?

I got a 167 on March 2019 test, and i got a 168 on pt 85, 169 on PT 82. I have gotten lucky a couple times and got a 171(PT 83) but thats rare. Anyone have tips on scoring in 170s consistently? For LR i get between -2 and -4, RC -4-6 and LG -2-0

#help

So I was stuck between A and B. Had I not seen this was a 3/5 difficulty I would have chosen A without hesitation. I still choose A, but contemplated B quite a bit.

Can someone please explain how A is wrong and B is correct?

Thank you.

I am having difficult time differentiating the following two types of question:

(1) Which one of the following could be a complete listing of the planes located in the four areas at noon, with each plane listed in every area in which it is located?

(2) Which one of the following is a compelte and accurate list of those planes any one o fwhich could be within area T at noon?

(1) asks to find a hypothetical world, where as (2) asks to find all the variables that can be at the area T at noon.

After reading several times, I finally get what each statement is asking for, but is there any easier way of detecting such types?

Thank you in advance!

So, I've done the Trainer and the LG Bible. I use the Trainer's notation system, but I use the Bible's strat in terms of inferences. I can map 95% of games and rules with ease. I understand just about everything JY does on the games explanations. And I implement some of his material when fool-proofing. I still miss about 1 question per game and am around 10 or 11 mins per game for the medium-hard and up games.

My question is: Would the LG curriculum be worth the time for me? Or should I just drill? I'm trying to maximize my study time obvi.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Guys,

Who's in DC and looking to meet in-person to study and br for the July LSAT?

Please, drop a comment!

If you're taking the July 2019 LSAT and your account is inconveniently set to expire a few days before the test date, you can get a free 14-day extension from this page: https://classic.7sage.com/free-extension/

For those of you who are expiring after, good luck on the LSAT! We here at 7Sage are rooting for you.

I am interested in doing family or criminal law in DC. However, I have a full ride to any California public law school due to Calvet. Should i just apply within California and hope to find a job in DC later to graduate with no debt or should I apply to DC schools and take on loans?

LSAC has posted its fall 2019 recruitment forums at https://www.lsac.org/lawschoolforums. Put on your best business casual and attend one or two.

• Forums are an opportunity for candidates to meet with admissions officers and school representatives (sometimes current students, alumni, or faculty) from a variety of law schools in one place.

• It is a chance to ask questions that might not be answerable on a law school’s website.

• Candidates can ask specific questions about their particular situation (“how would School X react to 6 LSAT scores??”)

• It is a chance to collect business cards, establish a connection with an admissions officer, and show enthusiasm for a school.

• It is a chance to get on the school’s radar and mailing list as an interested prospective student. You can look forward to receiving fee waivers and invitations to other prospective student events in the fall.

Referencing specific conversations and connections from forums in personal statements or future LOCIs may strengthen an application. Be prepared to ask a few smart questions and make a strong impression. This is prime recruitment season for admissions officers and they are on the lookout for good future students.
